Meet Pippa
Pippa is a gentle, sweet girl who is eager to become part of a relaxing and loving family home.
She is curious and willing to engage once she feels comfortable. With time, patience, and positive support, Kelly has all the potential to blossom into a confident and affectionate companion. She could go home with polite kids 10+ who can cope with some boisterous behaviour once shed comfortable. She is good with her dog friends but can be a bit picky, prefers Male Dogs of similar size she will get super excited and playful with them but has had poor results with some Female Dogs & Small Breeds.
Pippa is a gentle soul who just wants to be given all the affection from her new humans.
How our Adoption Process Works
Step 1) Preparation
Read our Adoption Philosophy and make sure your views on dog ownership align with ours. Please read this entire page to make sure you are ready for adoption day.
Step 2) APPLY
Browse available dogs online, review our dog sociability matrix and then complete an adoption questionnaire.
Step 3) ADOPTION
7 DAYS A WEEK: Walk ins welcome for adoption interviews between 11am-3pm! Our gates remain open until 4pm, but we conclude our adoption interviews at 3pm so we have time to take the dogs out, feed them and get them ready for bedtime.
During quieter periods, we will also do our best to review online applications, but unfortunately cannot get back to every applicant, especially for more ‘popular’ dogs. If you agree with our adoption philosophies and are ready to adopt- please do not wait for us to contact you after submitting a questionnaire.
PUPPIES & DOGS IN FOSTER CARE: If you are particularly interested in a young puppy or a dog that is currently in foster care, please indicate this on your questionnaire. Young puppies will not be on site here at the Refuge as it is much more beneficial for them to remain in foster care until their adoption. For dogs and puppies that are not on site, we will review online applications and get in touch with suitable homes to arrange a meet and greet.
